The US travel experiences you must have in your lifetime

It was where Elizabeth Taylor honeymooned with six of her seven husbands, where Faye Dunaway learned how to swim, and where Marilyn Monroe stayed in suite 100.

Our reviewer described its character as “old, classic Hollywood” and was impressed by staff, who were, “polished, friendly and faultless.” Then shop Pretty Woman-style on Rodeo Drive.
